At her apartment, Steve finds Bertolati dead as a result of a heart attack, according to Angela. But, in order to prevent a scandal, Angela urges Steve to get rid of the body without calling the police. Smitten Steve agrees and takes the body to his car with the intention of staging a crash. He is about to go do that when he finds out that Angela was indeed the lover of the dead man, and he hesitates. But a new character makes a violent entrance - a brutal ex-convict named Nino (Rossano Brazzi) - and he turns out to be Angela's husband. A fight ensues during which Nino gets hold of Steve's gun and shoots Bertolati's corpse, thereby implicating Steve, now less smitten with Angela than he was earlier, in the death of Bertolati. Nino then tries to kill Steve by pushing him into the car and into a nearby abyss, but Steve turns the tables and kills the aggressive Nino, hurling him into the car, with Bertolati, and into the abyss. Steve now suspects Angela's conduct and sincerity despite her efforts to convince him she is on the level. More surprises are coming Steve's way. Written by Les Adams See less
